Cleared written exams? The next phase in selection process would be Interview .We receive many requests from our readers asking for tips on how to prepare effectively for Job Interview.The Interview is one of the important part in recruitment,since its where the employer tests your personality,communication & problem solving skills.

1. Research. Visit the company`s website & read about their history, products, achievements, services, management etc.,You are sure to impress the HR if you know about their company and their working.

2. Start early. Reach the Interview spot in advance.Avoid rushing in the last minute,since it can create unwanted tension.

3. Dress Sensibly. Most organizations have a formal dress code,so stick with it.Light colored plain or checked shirts with dark pants for gents & Saree or Shirt/Pant for ladies would be a perfect costume.Keep it simple but professional

4. Be Calm. Look relaxed and stay cool while inside the interview hall. Nervousness decreases your confidence level & can make you stumble .Sit comfortably in an erect position, with hands on your lap. Avoid leaning on table or folding arms.

5. Greet the Interviewer. Most candidates forget to greet the person interviewing him/her while entering in excitement.Be polite in thanking when offered a seat to sit.

6. Use proper words. No need to show off your English knowledge by using unheard or difficult to understand words.Try using simple words and always answer questions looking into the other person`s eyes.

7. Salary details. Don't start a discussion on salary until asked for.It leaves a bad impression in the person`s mind about you.The Interviewer will definitely ask your preference,so wait till then.

8. Say Thankyou. Never forget to say thank you to the panel.Often,candidates are in a hurry to get out.Once the interview is over,thank the person,standup patiently & walk towards the door to leave.All these are noted in an interview.

How you behave inside an interview hall can speak volumes about your character.We hope these above tips would help in attending Interview boldly.
